Namibia: Africa’s New Far West | ENDEVR Documentary
Watch 'Mali: The Challenges After Intervention' here: • Mali: The Challenges A...
Namibia ranks third globally in terms of income inequality. Six percent of its population owns 70% of the land, and the scars of German colonization remain profound. Between 1904 and 1908, the Germans established concentration camps where indigenous Herero and Nama people were detained. Up to 80% of them perished in what Germany later acknowledged as the first genocide of the 20th Century. Descendants of these victims, like Karvita, reside in illegal settlements, facing constant threats of eviction, while descendants of the colonizers continue to hold the majority of the land without hesitation.
The majority of Namibia's abundant natural resources are either owned or controlled by foreign entities. DeBeers dominates the diamond industry, and the ruling Swapo party, widely viewed as corrupt, receives support from its longstanding ally: China. Chinese entities control the construction and uranium sectors, with leaked documents from 2021 revealing illegal subcontracting to North Korea for the construction of the country's State House.
Much of Namibia's terrain is thinly populated, allowing nature to thrive. It boasts one of the world's largest wildlife populations, including the only free-roaming black rhinos. However, these animals face constant threats from the Chinese mafia, while desertification, exacerbated by global warming, poses a danger to indigenous communities.

It is a myth that 6 percent of the population owns 70 percent of the land. It was maybe so before 1990 but now 7 percent of the population own 50 percent of the land.

Namibia is an infant nation shrouded with complex reality. A reality only fitting in the lens of the observer. Like the rest of Africa, we need conversations that soar beyond the scar and legacy of colonialism. I am native Namibian, adequate in a complete knowledge of my country in the African context. I continue to share a fair price of colonialism and government corruption. But as a nation we must mature in engaging in a conversation that will propel Africa out of pessimism into optimism. We are a nation to Sans, Bantus, Khokhogowab, Germans and Boers. That's an underlying foundation upon which our nation is planted. It is our shared heritage, what had failed is a leadership that unify a nation into capacity building. There are so much to our country than what's covered in this video that calls for honest talk.

I like the unbiased nature of these documentaries, no sugar coating or racial bias. Just telling it like it is, the struggle of black Namibians, the violent history of the colonizers, exploitation of the country by westerners and the Chinese, as well as the corruption of the government. Balanced reporting. If it was Zimbabwe, most of these western reporters would omit the history as well as the reasons behind the land grabs, painting Mugabe as a madman who just woke up to grab land without reason, when the fact is Mugabe was a patient man who gave the Rhodesians 20 years to fullfill the Lancaster House Agreement for equitable distribution of land. These are the same westerners who lavished Mugabe with dozens of awards for educational and healthcare reforms, of which he received the British Knighthood and many other accolades. Yet Mugabe was not hoodwinked by these awards, he remained steadfast and grabbed land in 2000. History must be told as it is.

@crimescene3448 3 ай бұрын

i wish people like you would get more coverage. Mugabe's story is one painful one for us zimbabweans who are struggling and going to other people's countries and being treated like trash by people who have only been informed about us by the biased western media. You will be shocked how many people know mugabe as a mad man because of the land grabs and know nothing about the Lancaster agreement.

The visuals at 28:51 are striking, this is literally an advert for why socialism has failed miserably. The irony of having the red flag, hammer and sickle, a symbol which is for the workers of the world, their blood and sweat while at the same time these same workers are not given their due by that same flag that purports to do just the otherwise. Even more striking is your champagne Marxist exiting a Mercedes a car that personifies capitalism, while preaching to the downtrodden workers to pursue their struggle with the evil state owned Chinese company. This is beyond poetic but farcical. These Namibians have no one to blame but themselves.

I'm surprised the US hasn't "spread democracy" to Namibia given the value of it's resources. Seriously though, the issues of Namibia lie on their government and if the Western world is concerned about the influence of China and NK they need to step up with trade and development deals that will better serve the people of Namibia and their development.
